When you need a versatile material with outstanding grip and scraping qualities, ribbed rubber flooring can provide the ultimate solution. Different rubber products will all offer something slightly different. When it comes to corrugated rubber, you are looking at a unique range of products with far-reaching capabilities. But first you have to know exactly what we’re talking about when we discuss ribbed rubber. A ribbed runner mat or flooring roll will have a surface covered with straight-line raised protrusions. These protrusions provide ridges and channels across the surface of the flooring. This ribbed flooring comes in a variety of different forms and is highly functional.
Perhaps the key feature of ribbed rubber, specifically when you are talking about ribbed flooring, is that it offers an extremely high grade of traction. Having raised ridges running across the standing surface will give you extra edges that your shoes can find grip against. Being able to find that extra toehold is essential in providing non-slip surfacing for potentially dangerous settings. Ribbed rubber is ideal for areas which might see a lot of moisture, which can lead to slippery flooring. A ribbed runner can help people keep their feet in all conditions!

Another important feature of ribbed runner mats and flooring is shoe scraping. The sturdy ridges of corrugated rubber will let you scrape away dirt, debris, mud or moisture from your shoes, leaving the soles far cleaner. Not only that, but the channels between the ribbed rubber ridges also help to trap the dirt, without providing a slippery hazard on top of the ribbed flooring. This scraping ability makes corrugated rubber especially useful when it comes to protecting interior floors from unwanted dirt. Just one of the many uses for this form of flooring could be adding a ribbed runner mat at an entranceway, where people will be able to scrape their shoes clean before entering. This will in turn keep the floors within clean, safe and dry.
Ribbed rubber can also provide a highly durable and protective surface. It can be installed over other more delicate flooring materials, giving you a tougher and more resilient surface, which can offer a high level of protection. The design of ribbed rubber surfacing can help with this, with the raised ridges absorbing blows and impacts. The rubber material will also provide water resistance and will not be easily damaged by other substances.
“Corrugated Wide Rib” Rubber Runner Mats
One thing to keep in mind is that there is a wide range of different make-ups and designs when it comes to ribbed rubber flooring products. Some ribbed runner mats might have slim ridges, while other might be much wider. The corrugations might also be spaced differently in varying products. Fine ribs spaced closer together might provide more effective scraping, while wider ridges could offer a cleaner aesthetic. No matter the design, the flooring will provide those base qualities of traction, scraping, protection and comfort. They will, however, have a slightly different underfoot feel and look. The specific ribbed rubber product you opt for might depend on the demands of the particular space you are covering.
Most ribbed flooring products are designed to be effective in both indoor and outdoor use, making them supremely versatile. Different ribbed runner products might be made from varying forms of rubber, and different forms of rubber often have different qualities. For instance, some rubbers have a higher tolerance to outdoor elements, allowing them to be used outside without breaking up or failing. Those corrugated rubber products which are designed for use outdoors would be made from a form of rubber which is resistant to elements such as ozone and UV rays.

Strong Scraping Capability: These runner mats are designed to handle the mess from dirty shoes. The corrugated rubber design is meant to scrape as much dirt and mud off of your shoes as possible.

High Traction: A very important feature of this rubberized flooring is the great level of traction it provides for foot traffic. Rubber pushes back against feet and gives them enough resistance to help them stay upright. In addition, the corrugated rubber design helps with enhancing traction. The chances of an errant slip occurring are greatly reduced when you have this safe and sturdy industrial flooring in place.
Having products which are effective in all conditions makes ribbed rubber extremely adaptable. It can be used in a huge range of applications, including indoor and outdoor walkways, in locations ranging from park paths to airports, in entranceways, commercial and industrial units, buses, vans and boat decks, and a great number of other settings. Wherever high levels of grip and protection are needed, ribbed rubber can excel. Ribbed rubber is particularly effective whenever there are liquids involved which can make standing and walking surfaces slippery. The raised ridges can provide grip-enhancing edges in spite of the surface fluids and ensure that traction is retained in all conditions.
